The video showcases Hurricane Dorian as observed from the International Space Station. Hurricane Dorian, initially a Category 1 storm, is tracked as it moves northeast over coastal areas like North Carolina and South Carolina towards New England and Nova Scotia. Throughout the video, astronauts aboard the space station witness and document the storm's progression, capturing images of its fluctuations. The National Hurricane Center provides forecasts and predicts the storm's impact on various regions, emphasizing the importance of safety measures for those in its path. The video concludes with information sources for further updates and signs off from the coverage of Hurricane Dorian.

In this segment, the video shows footage of Hurricane Dorian from the International Space Station. The space station is currently flying over British Columbia at about 500 miles per hour. Hurricane Dorian has downgraded to a Category 1 storm and is moving northeast near 14 miles per hour. The National Hurricane Center predicts its path over North Carolina and moving towards New England and Nova Scotia. The astronauts aboard the space station observe 16 sunrises and sunsets daily due to its orbit every 45 minutes.

In this segment of the video, the International Space Station is shown approaching the terminator line which separates day and night. The space station is currently over Saskatchewan and is about to pass over Manitoba, Canada. The view from the space station’s external cameras shows the approaching Hurricane Dorian, and the National Hurricane Center predicts significant rainfall in northeastern North Carolina. The astronauts onboard can observe the hurricane from the cupola, the space station’s bay window.

In this segment of the video, it is observed that Hurricane Dorian, a category one hurricane, is shown below the International Space Station. The hurricane is expected to impact the southeastern U.S. coast from northern Florida to North Carolina, causing dangerous surf and rip current conditions. The external cameras on the space station are controlled from Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. A solar panel powering the space station is seen as it flies over northern Michigan. Hurricane Dorian, with maximum sustained winds of 90 miles per hour, is shown on the high-definition camera, located off the coast of North Carolina.

In this segment of the video, it is noted that Hurricane Dorian is currently affecting the coastal areas of North Carolina and South Carolina. The storm’s intensity is expected to weaken as it transforms into a post-tropical cyclone by the following day. The International Space Station captured an impressive view of the eye of the hurricane while flying over New Jersey. Hurricane Dorian is moving northeast at a speed of about 14 miles per hour, with predictions suggesting it will maintain this trajectory and experience an increase in wind speed until Saturday.
00:12:00
In this segment of the video, the forecast for Hurricane Dorian indicates it will move over the coast of North Carolina before heading towards New England and Nova Scotia. The International Space Station observed Dorian from 261 statute miles north of Bermuda, with astronauts like NASA’s Christina Cook, Nick Hague, and Andrew Morgan capturing photos of the hurricane’s fluctuations on social media. Dorian is fading out of view as the space station moves further away.
00:15:00
In this part of the video, it is mentioned that Hurricane Dorian is a dangerous storm with wind speeds of up to 90 miles per hour over the Sargasso Sea. The International Space Station is tracking the storm’s movement towards New England and Nova Scotia, where it is expected to become a post-tropical cyclone with hurricane-force winds. The video states that this is the final day of coverage for Hurricane Dorian and advises safety measures for those in its path.
